Special Deal Prices for Tickets to Design on a Dime in Miami to Support Housing Works

As a member of the Board of the Directors for Housing Works, one of my favorite events of the year is the Design on a Dime fundraiser in Miami. Each year, the organizers bring together more than 25 of the country's top interior designers to create one-of-a-kind room vignettes from donated merchandise.

Once the rooms are created, the donated furniture, art and decor is then sold to attendees during the two-day sale for 50%-80% off the retail price. The money raised goes directly toward benefitting Housing Works' mission to end AIDS in America by 2025.

If you're interested in attending, I have good news: We're offering a couple of special TPG ticket rates just for readers. Here's the info for this year's event and how you can buy your ticket:
